Just looking for a general consensus. I'm looking to make a Cleric with either Destruction/Magic domains for Wizard Wands/Staves for artillery and the Destruction spell/Smite ability or War/Strength domains and Craft Staff for Power Word X staves, so my character would definitely be a melee/CQB fighter, and I was wondering how powerful Bestow Curse is when in conjunction with Spell Storing.

With Bestow Curse and Spell Storing, cast Bestow, move in, touch attack for -4 Saves. Rnd 2, Hit with Weapon for curse to Con, 5 ft back while Fighter takes your place. Rnd 3, Destruction/Slay living for death.

Also, for Bestow Curse, there's been talk of it stacking, and I was wondering what the stat Curse does. Is it an unnamed penalty or an enhancement penalty to stats? Or drain? Or damage?
